Misrata elders condemn crime acts of Haftar's militias

Misrata Council of Wisemen and Elders has condemned the criminal acts committed by warlord Khalifa Haftar and his militias, the most recent of which was the abduction and torture of 12 Libyans by a militia in Tarhouna known as the "Kaniyat".

The Council also denounced the silence of the international community, especially the United Nations Support Mission in Libya (UNSMIL) towards such crimes.

"People of Tarhouna have to clarify their position on the militias’ assaults," the statement reads.
